looking for a unique idea for a paint scheme . i was thinking of painting my truck simular to the 70' boss 302 scheme . any suggestions?

 

Surprising that there isn't a lot of custom paint on this site.

I really like what jaymz has:

thats a cool paint job . but i wasn't thinking anything that fancy . i will be painting it myself and i'm not a professional painter . i do alot of painting on RV's so i know i have the ability to paint it . at first i was thinking of painting it metallic silver with a black outlined flame design . and i may still do that . second idea was the boss 302 simularity ..another idea was to paint the hood with a sloped up the fenders black . the cab metallic silver and the the bed black again? anyhow that is the colors i am going to use . black and metalflake silver .

 

i kinda like the idea of just spraying it silver and then black down by the rocker panels. sorry i just like the color silver.

yes so do i . and the base color is going to be metalflake silver . i like the boss 302 stripes tho . i was thinking of painting the raised portion of the hood black with a stripe over the doors down to just above the rocker panels and back . simular to the 70's boss 302 stripes .

 

Black and silver sound good to me and I really love the Boss 302 look. Check out my black and silver truck.

I've always liked flames.
What about black with "phantom flames" under the black. Basically its black, and the silver flames are faint under the black. I've seen them call it phantom flames in the hot rod rags.

Anyways, Napa has 1/8 masking tape for that type of unique job. I did the flames on my son's kart(#11 in my gallery) w/ spray bombs. I faded it red to yellow on black. My first flame job will never be posted online, hehehe.

 

 

well as much $ as i will be putting into it i dont want to F#$%^&@ it up !!.......lol....i was thinking a think black line of flames fading a bit forward and the rest of the truck silver metalflake . my GF already informed me i was not going to paint it like a 70' boss 302 ....lol

 

So 70' boss it is, huh?!! lol

 

NOT if i ever want any again ........lol

 

lmao

 

well i showed her a pic of one and she hated it . she said but she wasnt a guy so she didnt know . that it was up to me . but ya know how women are when they say that kinda thing they want you to agree with them or they'll make your life hell ya know?..lol

 

still lmao...yep, married 11 years...still trying to figure some things out with her. Like today, I told her I was gonna get some tube steel to build a new rear bumper, she said ok. Then I came home because the steel yard was closed and told her I was gonna go out and get 2 K&N filters,. She flew off the handle... something about lack of money and the mortgage..I stopped listening. I was confused.
